Clairlea History
Clairlea was formerly part of a pioneer crossroads village known as Moffat's Corners. Moffat's Corners is best remembered for the Strangford Post Office which opened in 1863. This post office was situated at the present day intersection of St. Clair and Victoria Park Avenues. The Strangford name given to the post office was probably taken from a small town in Northern Ireland, as most of this area's first settlers were of Irish descent.
When the Strangford Post Office closed in 1873, Moffat's Corners became part of the greater Scarborough Junction community. In the early 1900's, the children in this area attended the Scarborough Junction school which was located at Kennedy and Danforth Roads.
The present day neighbourhood began to take shape in the 1950's when furrowed farm fields were replaced by rows of houses. This neighbourhood takes its name from the Clairlea Public School which opened in 1951.
Overview
Clairlea is a quiet, middle-income neighbourhood that features well treed streets and affordable homes. There is plenty of shopping on Warden, Victoria Park and Eglinton Avenues. This is an ideal neighbourhood for commuters as it is well served by public transit and is also within close proximity to the Don Valley Parkway.
Clairlea's major landmark is Warden Woods, a deep ravine valley that spans the south-east perimeter of this neighbourhood. The Warden Woods Ravine parkland has a paved trail which offers Clairlea residents a bit of nature close to home.

...I want to thank Alex for selling our home so quickly and over list price. Alex is all business and very thorough. You can trust Alex. His marketing skills are incredible. He brilliantly planted the sign on our lawn before the listing became active. This made local residents aware that our home was available and generated even more activity. His staff are equally professional. I am recommending Alex to friends and family.

Hi Alex,
It was a real pleasure to work with you on this. As you can imagine after so long in the house and the parents finally making a decision to sell, it became a very anxious time for them as well as for us. However, you were very helpful, responsive, always kept us posted and helped to answer any questions we had. We were also very impressed that you had a strategy all figured out in which to sell the home. Thank you so much for all your help with this Alex. It has been a little over a week since we initially contacted you and I speak for all of us when I say that you have reaffirmed that we made the right decision to contact you and not someone else. Thank You!

...If you're looking for a Real Estate Agent who's professional, courteous, and goes over and above the call of duty for his clients look no further than Mr. Alex Prasoulis. Alex was first recommended to me by a long time neighbor who was moving and selling their home. She praised his integrity and work ethic and it was for this reason that I chose him as my realtor, despite the fact that there was already one living in my own neighborhood. I sincerely appreciate Alex's patience and understanding. When I first spoke with him, I was still in the midst of a divorce, which ended up taking 3 years to complete. Alex stuck with me and maintained communication throughout the process, giving me the time I needed. When the house finally went up for sale, it took Alex less than two weeks to sell it at above asking price. I am extremely grateful to him for all his hard work, and would highly recommend him to anyone seeking an easy and positive experience in selling their home.
